                 for the beginner to grasp, and equally difficult for
                 the instructor to present in a straight-forward
                 understandable manner, is the concept of recursion.
                 Since this is a fundamental concept through which the
                 amount of computer code required for some algorithms
                 can be drastically reduced, an instructor must discuss
                 this area early in a student's career, even though he
                 runs the risk of confusing a few students for a lecture
                 or two. This paper presents a method of describing
                 recursive procedure calls that utilizes a form of
                 self-generating state diagram. This approach enables
                 the student to visually keep track of where program
                 control is located at each moment during execution.",
